    Default 2025 Haslab - Liokaiser

    As generally expected/hoped.

    I expect we'll see it listed on EB's site next week. The real question will be about the price - $300 USD is $478 AUD today. Here's hoping that the furor about Omega Prime got through to someone that both cares and matters...


    I like what I'm seeing. Apart from the thighs and crotch, the combiner parts appear to be integrated into the individuals. This does make them rather chunky, but it works for me. Deathcobra is a nice touch (although the alt mode is a bit off...).

    I reckon this will easily get far more than the 18000 orders required for all three tiers.

    18000 is a lot, admittedly, but Leokaiser is the holy grail for many people. Wed never be able to afford the original, if you could find one minty fresh. This replicates the animal breast master feature that makes them so charming individually. Then the ability to display it in combined mode……… I want one so bad
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    They're called the Chest-force now apparently.

    And Hellbat has been renamed to Ellbat.

    really hope the pricing on this is more in line with Saber and Deathsaurus than Omega Prime because it's something I'd really like to pick up but i don't think I'd wanna pay that kind of money

    Up on Zing/EB
    https://www.zingpopculture.com.au/pr...-action-figure
    549 AUD including GST, so pretty close to the US price converted once you account for tax

    I wonder if the negative feedback around the price of Fire Convoy and God Magnus forced their hand with this price on Liokaiser
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    I'd like to think so, yes. Can't imagine why else EB would choose to not make money on it. I don't know if Hasbro will have offered a reduced price as a partner, or some other beneficial arrangement, but EB won't have just volunteered this...

    I’m just glad it’s available, and that you don’t pay the full price upfront like you would with haslsb. Zing deserves a little profit for the service
